It is shown for illustration only.Note on white glare: Please ignore the white areas, they are glare from the light.Rosenthal was founded in 1879 as a family business. Originally the focus was porcelain manufacture and porcelain painting. In 1960, the Rosenthal Studiohaus was opened in Nuremberg and in 1965 the name was changed briefly to Rosenthal Glas & Porzellan AG and then in 1960 to Rosenthal AG in 1969. From 1997 to 2008, the Rosenthal AG owned most of the British-Irish Waterford Wedgwood Group. The Studio-Linie mark was used from 1971 to at least 1995. Since the Rosenthal mark on this paperweight does not identify the country of origin (normally Germany), it is possible that the paperweight was made at Waterford, but I have no evidence one way or the other. Very large size: 4 5/15” diameter by 2 15/16” high. The base is polished flat. It weighs just under three pounds (47.1 ounces). Condition: Very good condition. One tiny bruise (less than 1/8" across) found on the side next to the base when taking pictures. Not noticed in earlier inspections. No other chips, cracks or scratches. A few tiny bubbles in the glass. Signature: Signed with an acid etch mark on the base with the name Rosenthal, the crown and crossed swords logo, and Studio-Linie underneath.
